Hm, your emacs-w3m package seems to have already been compiled.
If so, I recommend you do `make clean' and `make' again.

That's weird. Does the w3m command you use come from real
w3m.el? My guess is that the w3m.elc file you use is corrupted,
or there's another version of emacs-w3m in the load-path. To
make sure of it, do the `C-x C-f' command for the w3m file[1]
and do the `C-s' command for the string "(defun w3m-alive-p".
[1] Use the file name (but .el, not .elc) obtained by evaluating
the following form (type C-j at the end of the line in the
*scratch* buffer):
(locate-library "w3m")
